No raytracing on AMD GPUs?

[REG2012]

So I load up the Witcher 3 just now and go to check the graphics settings. And there's no raytracing option anywhere. Did they remove it?

If you have updated your game to the NG version, you must run the game in DX12 mode. This is necessary because the RT option is not available in DX11.
You can configure this in the Red Launcher or in the GOG game settings. Alternatively, the easiest way is to run the game executable directly from the following path: <your game folder>\bin\x64_dx12\witcher3.exe
